As of 22 August 2022, RSIS says 64 sites in India. -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 01:51, 23 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

A press release from an Indian government agency claims that 11 more have been added. Please clarify, much appreciated.

I'm afraid I'm not in a position to clarify the matter, since I'm neither a functionary of the Indian state nor of the Ramsar secretariat, but RSIS is the authoritative source for the sites currently listed under the convention, and those new Indian sites still aren't listed there. Probably they're going through the Ramsar bureaucracy and will be added to the list soon. -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 19:15, 24 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
